I'm happy that I purchased this bra. It's very stylish and supportive for running. My one complaint would be that the cups are very thin so if you're wearing the bra with a tight top you will get nipple show through. As for sizing, I'd say that the cups are true to size but the band is on the tight side. I usually am in between a 32 and 34 and in this bra I wear the 34 band on the loosest hook.

Cup size/shape fits great, very natural. I was looking for a bra I felt comfortable wearing now that I am back to work in a professional setting. This works great, looks good under clothes but easy to pump/nurse while wearing it!

I'm a bigger busted girl, 32J, so good strapless bras are really tough to come by. I was hesitant to buy one at all, to be honest. This one is actually really great though. I can wear it for several hours and not have to yank it back in to place, it stays put where it should be. The fit is true to size and it doesn't add any extra cup sizes when I don't need them. My only complaint is that after a few hours my ribs do tend to feel a little sore, but it's a minor inconvenience I'm willing to have for a bra that actually does it's job.

I thought I was a 34D for a long time before a proper fitting at a department store about 10 years ago "diagnosed" me with a 32DD. I bought 2 "minimizers" as a result of that visit, yet found the Freya Rio online. I like it so much better than a minimizer, because it does not push the breasts off the torso and -without padding!- guides them into a natural and supported shape. Bare Necessities always has this in stock, and I am so glad it is offered in a nude color too after a hiatus. I can buy dresses in my real size and less often have to buy a size up and tailor the waist and hips.

It's that supportive. Improves my posture (at least around the house ).
I have heavy and very sensitive breast tissue.( 32DDD) If a bra does not provide optimal support, my breasts actually ache painfully.
I returned the Chantelle. For some reason, Freya bras and a few Moving Comfort bras, a Panache bra, are about the only bras I can wear.
I love the contained and slightly pointy contour they provide. A little retro. Madonna would love this bra. It's very smooth feeling, also.

I love a good leopard print and this fits the bill! The padded half cup shape gives a little extra boost then other bras. I recommend staying with the same size cup you would normally wear. It is a perfect summer bra! (Maybe for some concerts or a night out!)

I love this bra! Just got it a few days ago and I have already worn it 3 times. Very comfortable, very pretty, and light weight for the summer. I will be ordering the other color and maybe a second white one.
